Connecting and Configuring your Router

Connecting and Configuring your Router
Verify the contents of your box. You should have the following:
• Belkin N Wireless Router
• RJ45 Ethernet Networking Cable
• Power Supply
• Belkin Setup Assistant Software CD
• User Manual on the Setup Assistant CD
Modem Requirements
Your cable or DSL modem must be equipped with an RJ45 Ethernet
port. Many modems have both an RJ45 Ethernet port and a USB
connection. If you have a modem with both Ethernet and USB, and
are using the USB connection at this time, you will be instructed to
use the RJ45 Ethernet port during the installation procedure. If your
modem has only a USB port, you can request a different type of
modem from your ISP, or you can, in some cases, purchase a modem
that has an RJ45 Ethernet port on it.

Setup Assistant
Belkin has provided our Setup Assistant software to make installing
your Router a simple and easy task. You can use it to get your Router
up and running in minutes. The Setup Assistant requires that your
computer be connected directly to your cable or DSL modem and
that the Internet connection is active and working at the time of
installation. If it is not, you must use the "Alternate Setup Method"
section of this User Manual to configure your Router. Additionally,
if you are using an operating system other than Windows 2000, XP,
or Vista, or Mac OS X v10.x, you must set up the Router using the
"Alternate Setup Method" section of this User Manual.
